After having a really crappy two weeks I'm actually fully booked for this week just a couple of one hour slots available. Bloody sods law my hand is playing up. Do any ladies who do massage have any tips to keep presure off the hand when doing a booking. I rested it all weekend but it's hurting after working today x
Maybe try a forum like massageprofessionals dot com for advice? I don't know what the problem is with your hand(s), and am certainly not qualified or experienced enough to comment much. I do know that the saddle joint of the thumb is most vulnerable in massage therapists, so maybe use a knuckling technique instead of applying pressure with your thumbs, and to apply pressure with long strokes use your underarm. Localised pressure with your elbow maybe?
I don't want to stray off topic too much (slow at the minute....), but you're more likely to find useful stuff at forums for practitioners of complementary medicine.
Also, I see there is heaps of advice on self care for massage therapists on youtube.
